F4 seems to work a lot the same as Alt D, puts me right into the address bar. But I don't know whether the URL in the address bar gets automatically selected using F4 the way that happens with Alt D. Anybody know? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Jenkins" <saveup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2008 10:48 PM Subject: RE: Outlook Express key stroke Hello Alan. I would not suggest "F6" for the following reason. If you do it your way depending on where you are in Internet Explorer it may take several presses of the keystroke to get to the address bar. However if you press "alternate +D" you are likely to get to the address bar 100% of the time as long as you are focused anywhere in Internet Explorer. I hope this helps.

When you move there, the web address is highlighted so you can clear by hitting delete or just begin typing what you want. For example you could type www.freedomscientific.com, hit enter and you will go to that site. Alt D then control C is the quickest way to copy a web address. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ann Medlar <mailto:amedlar1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2008 10:38 AM Subject: Re: Outlook Express key stroke Yes I meant Internet Explorer.

Is there a key stroke to clear web site address?
